Oh I love this one! So many opportunities to play with fabric prints/ textures. Jacobs ladder has always been my favorite block. The quilt layout { calls to me. }
Thanks Rhonda, as always your creativity and generosity are so appreciated!

It's a good thing there is only one a month! I kept looking at the design, and thinking "gold chain and gold star" and I knew exactly what fabric I wanted to use.

Does not show that well in the photo- the gold print is a black fabric with heavy gold metallic outline, the gold is Fairy Frost - so a lot of shimmer. The black is called "hand dyed" and has a lot of shading. The cream has a white outline design. This is a table runner - I made the small blocks 3" so it would be 18" wide.

I got the border put on - the gold will be a self binding, with about an inch of it folded to the back.

I like it so much, I went and fixed some of the more noticeable places that didn't line up - mostly where the black blocks meet to form the white center square. They now line up perfectly - though the don't look like it because it's not laying quite flat.

This is a close up showing the detail of the fabric.
